Research & Development
VAUDE's reputation for excellence in mountain sports equipment has been helped by the fact that most of our employees themselves are enthusiastic about mountain sports, and the experience from their adventures flows directly into our products. We are open to new ideas and committed to both innovation and defining new trends in the market.
Continuous improvement is only possible when the entire product development process is included. For us here at VAUDE, basic research is not only an investment in outstanding product quality, but also in your safety as a consumer.
We challenge the status quo and form our own conclusions, with results that flow directly into our product development. Understanding the mechanisms of how man and gear perform together translates directly into successful design and development.
No material can bypass our testing laboratory in VAUDE HQ, Tettnang where it's thoroughly examined, abraded, shaken up, and torn at. Only when it has successfully passed this stringent testing is it released for manufacturing use. But even then it cannot evade the tough standards of our laboratory. To ensure highest quality control we carry out regular random tests that guarantee quality maintenance of the entire production process. VAUDE's own testing laboratory is unique in the Outdoor industry. This past year, VAUDE has expanded again in order to provide our R&D and quality control teams extensive diagnostic methods and instrumentation for testing textiles and hardware according to the latest standards.
